What is an OMB file?

OMB files mostly belong to Omnibus by Alfega Technologies, Inc. An Omnibus file is a single, compressed and/or encrypted file linked to a Web server. Each Omnibus file on your computer is associated with a single (parent) Web server that has full access to the contents of the Omnibus file (but nothing else on your PC). In a way, you can think of an Omnibus file as an extension of the parent Web server, able to serve Web pages even in the absence of an Internet connection. An Omnibus file is like having a Web server inside of a file. You navigate the contents of an Omnibus file just as you would the original Web site.
